Methi Masala Chapathi | Kasuri Methi Leaves Chapathi

I have always wanted to make Chapathi with fresh fenugreek leaves. I used to neglect those leaves thinking they would be so bitter. Only recently I got to taste delicious Methi Paratha at our friend’s place and have been planning to recreate it at home for quite sometime nkw. Since I missed buying those fresh leaves from market this week I thought of making a similar Methi flavored Chapathi using Dried Kasuri Methi leaves.

I added onion and some dry spice powders along with Fenugreek Leaves. This Chapathi tasted so good and was easier to prepare as well. It didn’t take much time since there is no cleaning of leaves required. Our dinner was this yumm Fenugreek Leaves Masala Chapathi & Cowpeas Masala.
